[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
You can flash it, but you wont have access to your external sdcard.

And before you go to CM7, Odin the froyo bootloaders, then Odin back to jfd, then flash CM7.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyle51:
doesnt taking the external out and putting it into 1 of them usb stick things to plug in by itself work or it just doesnt work plugging the phone into usb ??

im not on CM7, just wondering :)
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] xxprowler:
2 questions

1. doesn't JFD tar has boot loaders in it that will be flashed during odin ?

2. if i do need froyo boot loaders, where can i take them from ?

thanks.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] kyle51:
same place you got the GB 1s from
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] younix258:
^that about the ffroyo bootloaders... you wont have aaccess to external sd on your phone if you have cm7 and gb bootloaders. I suggest you odin froyo bootloaders, thrn jfd and the flash cm7 as mentiones above.. idk if odin jfd will do bootloaders as wwell, just do it the long way.

Sent from a cell tower to the XDA server to you.
[Vibrant Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] geoffcorey:
1: nope, it does not contain any bootloaders.

2: the same.place you get the gb bootloaders. Go look in the dev section within the 1st 3 pages. It's in there.

So... im going to install #73 right now, and let you guys know how its works.

Update: Nightly 73# and up Will work with GB Bootloaders, External SD card works. Now you can bounce around between 2.2/2.2.1, JVR, CM-7 and Maybe Miui, without having to Odin. WOOT!

Has Anyone ever heard of a phone that's Powered Off, that Turns On itself Everytime I Plug it in to Charge? I Gotta admit its become Annoying as Hell! If so, How do I Fix this Stupidass Problem?

Thanx in Advance!
[General Questions and Answers] mikeyrave:
not 100% but might be your kernel. so if your rooted try a different kernel

No never heard of that. Will observe if my phone did that later
[General Questions and Answers] somecelly:
My Palm Pixi always did the same thing, when I plugged it in with a dead battery.
[General Questions and Answers] plainjane:
One of my previous Evos did that. The screen would freeze completely and flicker - if sound was playing it would continue on whatever note was playing when it froze. It started doing this about once a day, then it did it all the time. It would freeze on the splashscreen so it would take 15-20 attempts to get it to boot fully, and then only run for about 15 minutes before it would do it again. Sometimes when it finally booted it would say that the battery was at 0% despite a full charge. I then started to notice that if I put it on the charger while it was off, it would turn on as soon as I took it off.

The phone wasn't rooted - it was a replacement I had just gotten - so I couldn't try flashing anything.

The techs at the Sprint store couldn't tell me what was wrong with it. If yours continues to get worse then I'd take it in for a replacement.
[General Questions and Answers] PMGRANDS:
Sounds almost like mine, Except mine turns on when I'm plugging it in... I recently tried a new phone charger and it Still did it just Not as much so its kind of hard to determine if its actually the phone itself, or the Cheap chargers that I have?

Also Anyone know what Car mode is? It's been Enabling itself Without me actually physically doing it myself, and when I turn it off its right back on very next Reboot!

Oh yeah by the way...

Thanx for Everyones input!
[Desire General] pablo_max:
Hello all,

I like many others, I have installed the new GB ROM from the RUU supplied by HTC and it is "OK". However, i would like something else.

I have seen many guide to install ROMS and it seems more or less clear.

My problem, and maybe the problem for other noobs if the fact that there are so many ROMs out there. It is difficult to know which one to take.

For example, I am looking for plain old stock android 2.3 for the desire. No sense, no extra HTC apps. Just what google would have on the nexus 1. But, I cant figure out which ROM fits that.

Any ideas?

What would be great is sticky which lists the ROMs and their main features for all us noobs. Unless there is one already and I didnt see it ;)
[Desire General] vashishtuday:
Get Oxygen Rom mate its nice and basic , if u want to go too basic get DevNull

But for starters i think u shud go with oxygen :)

Pm me if u want to discuss any other details
[Desire General] monsterfly:
Well, if you installed official Gingerbread 3.14.405.1 RUU, you can't get root (yet). No root means that you can't install custom rom.
[Desire General] itachi1706:
Isn't there one already?

http://xdaforums.com/showthread.php?t=809328
[Desire General] Lothaen:
watch the video tutorial too - but it sounds like you want an AOSP rom
[Desire General] k3lcior:
Yup, you definitely wanna try Oxygen + it was recently updated to Android 2.3.5.

It's sense free, all bloatware removed, very fast & minimalistic.

http://forum.oxygen.im/viewtopic.php?id=149 (it wasn't updated on XDA yet, but you can download it from there)

CyanogenMod7 will also fit you.
[Desire General] longy92:
Should have read into what you were doing before you updated. You can't root now, which means no custom ROMs for you. HTC updated HBOOT so no more rooting for the time being. You're stuck with it till someone cracks it. Unlucky dude.
[Desire General] aaa:
My recommendation:

Sense (2.1+3.0) : InsertCoin 1.0.9

AOSP: Oxygen

no MIUI from me...sorry..
[Desire General] pablo_max:
Thanks for all the replies. I am pretty sure it is only a matter of days or weeks at most until I can root. I recall the same situation last update.

It sounds like oxygen is the way to go. Once the root is available I will give it a shot. Thanks.
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] MrEpic:
Anyone took a break from srf 1.2 to play with the randomrom yet? Did you notice any changes? Do you feel it was worth it? Is everything of importance functional on your particular phone? Was there a significant change in batt life? I already get a !-2% drop every hour so im not to to worried about it..just curious about the rom itself?
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] gtuansdiamm:
Its a good gingerbread rom but srf works better cause its not a leak puts it ha a source code
[Epic 4G Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] socos25:
Srf is still smoother with better battery life, but there are a few things that seem to run better, portrait to landscape seems to switch faster on GB, and the keyboard seems pretty smooth although I still get some misses.

Thanks for the input....which kernels are you guys running?
[General Topics] Omnichron:
My phone was being sluggish, I could tell access times had increased considerably. I could not find any defragmenting program for use within android. It occurred to me to connect the phone to my pc as storage and just let the windows built-in defrag program check it out. It found 23% Defragmentation on the sd card so I clicked defrag and voila it worked flawlessly. All those little sectors aligned and sorted out. Now I have 0% defrag on my sd!:D

edit: damn... I'm flying through my folders on the sd card! lol
[General Topics] mrrick:
Nice tip. Thanks.
[General Topics] kakagi:
yah i also used this method
[General Topics] mikeyrave:
its all in your head, not really any reason to defrag a sd-card considering there's no moving parts. any speed increase (if any) will almost be unnoticeable to you.
[General Topics] Mayazcherquoi:
Not to mention the fact that is decreases the life of your card, while presenting no benefit at all..
[General Topics] mikeyrave:
+1

if your having issues with speed then take everything you need off your card such as pictures and music. then FORMAT with a larger clustersize like 32k then check your read-ahead-kb on your phone and make it bigger if needed
[General Topics] starfish_001:
a better tip
[General Topics] mrrick:
I freaking love this forum..
[General Topics] mr.marcus:
Hmm jury is still out on this one....IDK
[General Topics] adfad666:
I've seen similar results before. I know it shouldn't make a difference but it somehow does. perhaps it's simply the case that 'defragging' moves the files out of bad sectors so it has to perform less error correction?
[General Topics] FloatingFatMan:
Why would anyone in their right mind want to de-defragment their SD card?!?!?!
[General Topics] zxcplayer:
Agree with this one:D
[General Topics] lehung1108:
Thanks for tips.
[General Topics] jonchan_2003:
You should never defragment SSDs and since SSDs are oversized SD cards I take it that this rule applies to SD cards as well.

I have to open a new thread here because I can't still post in the android section, by the way I've tried to follow the instruction found in this post for solve the keyboard freezing problem but I when I launch the script it says that he can't find the 2 files it have to launch, and opening the folder by the terminal or by my ubuntu I can't found the 2 files

/lib/modules/microp-ksc.ko

/lib/modules/microp-keypad.ko

anyone knows why?

a member wrote on the same post that he had the same problem, so he have deleted some files and have run the new kernel...how can I launch the device with another kernel?

thank you :)
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kurt Krummbein:
Hi,

answer is easy (well, for those who looked behind the scenes), at boot, the system checks if the kernel-modules on the sdcard are different from the installed in /lib/modules ... and due to the fact that the kernel version is the same (just with the keypad drivers optional as modules), the unpacking of the tar.gz-archive is skipped.

You have two options now, use the 'Terminal Emulator' and do a:

su

rm /lib/modules/*

and reboot your phone, or copy the two modules from the tar.gz in ubuntu.

Ciao

[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kurt Krummbein:
Hm, rotating the screen is not normal ... just if he thinks you pulled out the 'real' keyboad.

I think, the camera button of Honeycomb froyo is prepared for camera usage ;-).
[XPERIA X1 Q&A, Help & Troubleshooting] Kurt Krummbein:
Hm, perhaps, best solution at the moment would be, to run the unload-load-script when the phone is waking up from sleep mode. So, when keypad is lost, the user can send to sleep with the power button an immediately switch it on again ... and additionally, the script can run when a call comes in ... don't know if these events can get picked up and the event-handlers can be changed, just thinking ...

[T-Mobile LG G2x] tombaker1:
How to set up a new G2x.

1. If it needs 2.3.3 do that first.

2. Hard reset the phone...turn phone off, hold volume down and power, for about 10 seconds until the little unpacking icon bubbles up.

3. Start phone up, and what the heck, go into privacy menu and do a complete restore, from there. (Its twice the fun, done via two different start signals, but it won't hurt, the phone is already blank, and it adds 10 minutes max.

4. Download as the first thing the My Device T-mobile app, and install it. Someone did some digging and found that the older version was problematic...and what the heck, it a no harm no foul item even if the guy is wrong and its just placebo. He was doing some sort of checking to see what was causing the faults and it was coming from the OLD my device program.

5. Turn off the phone via the menu.

6. Turn on the phone.

7. Turn off the phone.

8. Do a hard restart (not a hard restore, just restart) With phone off, hold power and volume up, until it comes on, and then blanks, and the white LG screen comes up. You should see it cycle, it may come on like normal, but keep holding until it cycles.

9. Unless you want random reboots or what not....DO NOT INSTALL ANY MEMORY MANAGERS OR TASK KILLERS, or BATTERY SAVERS. If you leave your house...turn off your WIFI. If you are not using the GPS, turn it off. If you are not using data, set the data mode to 2G only or turn it off. Beyond screen brightness those are all the major juice users.

Anything that you give control to shut down "wasteful" processes, is giving that utility to carve out dependent processes, which when your phone finds missing can cause all sorts of errors like rebooting.

Many of the people complaining about reboots (not all) slapped on a copy of advanced task killer, and are dumbfounded when there system becomes unstable.

Your G2x should be OK.....so to speak...now. :eek:

Andim made rom tools for wp7 that was used for custom roms on the hd2. Haven't got a chance to see if they will work for native wp7 devices. That and can we get update files for mango without connecting through Zune.

Don't know about interop services but developer unlocked roms are definate. Its just a simple regedit made to user.hv or default.hv that unlocks it.

Really looking forward to roms like xboxmods color wp7 roms I used to run on my hd2. Ive asked him how he does the icons before and they were edited dll's that could only be loaded in a custom rom. As far as live tiles go obviously other icons can be changed without custom dll's

They already have the mango update in a zip file in the hd2 forum. Maybe I'll give this a go tonight.
